Presentation of the Lord mug

The Presentation of the Lord mug can recall a feast that many families associate with the beginning of February. Its painting shows Mary handing the Child to Simeon, while the reverse gives the name of the feast and its 2 February commemoration. It is a gift for someone who feels close to this Gospel scene or shares its celebration with you.

Jesus' encounter with Simeon

The feast recalls Jesus arriving at the Temple in Jerusalem, brought by Mary and Joseph forty days after his birth. The Gospel account presents Simeon receiving the Child and recognising in him the awaited salvation. Anna also appears, praising God and speaking about the Child to those who were waiting for redemption.

The chosen painting focuses on the handing over of the Child, wrapped in swaddling clothes, from Mary's arms to Simeon's. The Presentation of the Lord mug preserves this image of encounter and recognition. You can give it to someone with whom you share a reading of this passage or a memory of a February celebration.

A specific feast on the reverse

The other side features the name of the Presentation of the Lord and its 2 February commemoration. The composition is dedicated to this feast in the calendar. If you are giving it as a gift, a few words about the image or the occasion that brings you together can accompany it and explain your choice.

The 3D viewer lets you check the painting and text. Selecting ‘Both sides’ displays two opposing views of the same mug, and you can continue rotating the scene. Choose a right-handed or left-handed orientation to suit the person who will use it; the quantity of mugs is selected separately.
